Hi, It is known that the area of square plotted by forestplot is proportional to the studies' weights. But since there is not weight parameter in forestplot function, how does this function proportion the area of each square based on the related study's weight? Look forward to your reply, Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Dear R users, I would like to adjust the x axis the way I wanted using "forestplot(labeltext, mean, lower, upper, align = NULL, xlab = "", zero = 0, graphwidth = unit(2, "inches"), col = meta.colors(), xlog = FALSE)". I tried using xaxt="n" and then redefine the axis using axis(1, at=c(0,0.5,1.0 ,1.5,2.0,2.5),label=c(0,0.5,1.0,1.5,2.0,2.5)), but it

Dear R users, I am trying to create a forest plot with a table of text using the forestplot() function in the rmeta package. I have been trying to reduce the font size of the resulting table of text, but have not been successful. I have tried adding options like 'cex' or 'font' but none of them seem to work. Is there anything I could do? This is what I have so far:

Hi All, I have been able to modify the x-axis to start at zero by adding xlow and xhigh parameters; that was pretty simple. I have been unable to find the location of the code that would turn off the information weighting of the box size (I have smaller randomized trials getting less weight than a much larger non-randomized trial). The function is forestplot() from rmeta. Thanks for any

All, I am using the forestplot function in rmeta. I was able to modify the x axis range by commenting out one line and feeding it two new parameters (I wanted to set zero as the axis start point). #xrange <- c(max(min(lower, na.rm = TRUE), clip[1]), min(max(upper, na.rm = TRUE), clip[2])) #new line xrange <- c(xlow,xhigh) Now I am trying to modify the text font size for

Dear all, I could not draw a forest plot for meta-analysis under ramdon models using the rmeta package. The rmeta has a default function for MH (fixed-effect) model. Has the rmeta package been updated for such a function? Or someone revised it and kept a private code? I would appreciate it if you could provide some information on this question. Thanks, Andrew This email is intended

Dear R users, Is there any way to control the size of the box around the mean when creating a Forest plot using the forestplot function? regards Mark Mark T.

Dear R-list, I'd like to do a meta-analysis plot similar to install.packages('rmeta') require(rmeta) data(catheter) a <- meta.MH(n.trt, n.ctrl, col.trt, col.ctrl, data=catheter, names=Name, subset=c(13,6,5,3,7,12,4,11,1,8,10,2)) summary(a) plot(a) (see attached file) by using my own OR (Odds Ratio) and 95% Confidence Interval data set, which looks like

Dear all, I would like to draw three forest plots to represent results at years 1, 2 and 3. I have the data as point estimates and 95% confidence intervals. Using the following code I can get three basic forest plots - the first which has the table of results. I have to plot each separately as the usual par(mfrow=c(3,1)) does not work with the function forestplot within rmeta. I can easily put

Dear R users, I'm trying figuring out with forest plot and rmeta. Here's my code... library(rmeta) tabletext <- structure(c("", NA, "Sex", "[F]", "[M]", NA, "Age class", "(0,60]", "(60,80]", NA, "Karnofsky class", "[70;90]",

In the following, I'm plotting hazard ratios, for which the nominal value is 1 and not 0. x has 5 columns: drug, hr,

Greetings I have been trying to use metaplot to create a forest plot of my meta-analysis results. My data is in the form of ORs, so I've been inputting the ORs as the point estimate (mn) and the SEs of the logORs as the SE (se). However, whilst the point estimates appear to be displayed properly, many of the confidence intervals go below zero (not possible for an OR, as far as I know). I

Hello R users, I would like to create several forestplots with the same X axis, so, if you were to look at the plots lined up all the X axes would be identical (and the different plots could be compared). Here is one version of code I've used: mytk10<-c(0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10) pdf(file = "myfile.pdf", pointsize = 7, paper="letter", width=6, height=9)

Hello All, I am having a problem creating text for my forest plot using the "forestplot" function in the rmeta package. I think my problem is that I have too many columns of text, so I was wondering if there is a way to shrink my text or to change the default setting. Here is an example: #### forest_mean<- as.numeric(c(NA, 1.00, 2.00, NA, 0.75, 1.10)) forest_lower<-

OK - I've been doing some work on getting a forest plot or two together for a sub-group analaysis. Thats the crucial thing - because its a sub-group analysis rather than a meta-analsysis and all the forest (meta) and forestplot (rmeta) instructions assume you are doing a meta-analysis. I found rmeta didn't play nicely for me so I'm using the meta package with forest. Here's some

Hi, How is the combined value (displayed by a diamond on the forest plot) of a meta-analysis illustrated by a forest plot calculated? The applied method and all calculation details are welcome. Thanks Carol [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Hello, I'm ashamed to admit that I'm an R and meta-analysis neophyte just when my colleagues and I are attempting to run R for that latter purpose. We would like to construct a graph of the 95% confidence intervals of odds ratios (inverse odds ratios, actually). We are using the metaplot() function in the "rmeta" package. While we can construct a basic plot, we cannot configure

Hi, I am trying to find m breakpoints of a linear regression model. I used the segmented package. It works fine for small number of predicators and breakpoints.(3 r.v. 3 points). However, my model has 14 variables it even would not work even for just one breakpoints!. The error message is always estimated breakpoints are out of range. Since my problem is time related problem. So I

Hi All, I am trying to combine two forest plots on the same page using the "forestplot" function in the rmeta package. Once I use the par() function to combine my plots on the same page, I find that my two plots are overlaying each other. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this?
